    San Diego Flight Training International

    Ill take lift over drag any day looks like the last poster erased any misconceptions about what you can expect at SDFTI. 1: Management and owners are evil 2: Instructors impression is that students don't put forth any effort 3: Students get fed up over exhorbitant prices and molassass...

    like eating an elephant

    During my first stage check for my private I flawlessly executed each manuever the check airman requested. **CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED** I thought, this is a cake walk. " Okay Captain" he says, "take me home." hmm lets see, its the east coast of Florida..flat, undeveloped...

    New CFI/II's and teaching

    more ramblings Oh yeah I forgot. Not to discourage you but 250 hour CFI's are about as rare as retractable 152's. 250TT CFI who have the ability to instill confidence in a student are as rare as turbo 152's. every hour of flight is another lesson you can bring to the able.

    New CFI/II's and teaching

    can't be worse than this

    Im seriously thinking of becoming a plumber...good money and no down turns in the market!! MAybe make enough to buy a 172 and actually get to fly. Read the NYTIMES article 5/27 on pilot training, looking scary particularily for a new CFI with about 30 dual given.

    Pan Am Flight Academy

    I attended PAIFA in Vero Beach when they were building the Pt Pierce facility. The training was excellent but management was lacking. I have followed some posts about whats happening there these days and this is what Ive gleaned.... to get looked at to get hired you gotta have the hours and...

    Does CFII ride restart currency?

    Or would this be just like the CFI not automatically qualify as a BFR? Should I ask DPE to endorse a sucessful checkride as an IPC as well?

    Pan Am Academy CFI's must PFT ($7K)

    We eat our own I remember when PAIFA took over my school in Vero Beach afew years ago..one instructor made an innocuous comment about something on the uniforms during a CFI meeting and they fired him on the spot!
